Fishermen Inspired

There have been a lot of fishermen in Grand Marais, fishing off the pier. They are catching white fish.
I was inspured to"catch"" this" fish , which was cut out from wood and handpainted.

Homemade Baked Bread

The smell of homemade bread baking can make a winter day just better. The warmth of the oven and then cutting off a slice and spreading on some butter and tasting it...heaven!  

A " Real Day "

I have been told that  if the sun does not shine, it it not a "real day".The sun is shining today and that is REAL...so what a blessing for Grand Marais!   We have not had  too sun much in a long time.  It still is very cold so you still need a hat even though it looks deceiving from inside the house.    You may not be able to see  colors of the yarn in this photo, but, the colors are beautiful. The color of the yarn is called  Harlequin.
